Jeetendra and Sheen

Indian Charlie Sheen lookalike Jeetendra allegedly developed his own card counting system.

We all know about Charlie Sheen’s attraction towards gambling, for example remembering the time when he lost one million dollars in blackjack while waiting a half an hour for his limo pick-up in a Las Vegas casino.

Some called the million dollar blown on blackjack bad luck, some called recklessness, some even called it good PR. Allegedly, Sheen decided to convert to Islam after the incident. Just these two actions secured him tabloid front pages for days or even weeks, not bad value for money, if you ask us.

Not many Americans know that Charlie Sheen has a lookalike in India. His name is Jeetendra, literally several hundred million people in South East Asia recognize his face. We are sure that if you would show the picture of Charlie Sheen to villagers in India, they would say ‘Jeetendra’.

Jeetendra was born as Ravi Kapoor in 1942, in the city of Amritsar in Punjab: Also known to his fellow countrymen as Jumping Jack, Jeetendra is undoubtedly one of the most talkative and fastest dancing actors in Bollywood. He has appeared in almost 100 Indian films and TV-series. In 2000, he received a Lifetime Achievement Award in India.

It also worth mentioning that according to the Indian gossip press, Jeetendra also likes to gamble. He was reported to appear in high-profile casinos around the world. But unlike Charlie Sheen, Jeetendra is a clever blackjack player. He is known to always keep his limits both time and money-wise.

Some sources claim that Jeetendra actually developed some kind of a card counting method for blackjack. He was born into a family of jewelers, where he learned to quick ways count, add and subtract numbers, certainly something useful when playing cards.
